    3 piece chicken tenders.
    Alma P.

    My daughter love this place. We get to order ahead and just pick up. Since this time everyone got their own food we end up eating there. But different meals. For different tastes. My daughter ordered the 3 pieces chicken tenders with fries. She love the flavor of the bread on the chicken. And the fries are Very crunchy. It comes with a drink and she gets Dr. Pepper. Yer favorite. We did it have to wait a long time when the order is ready. It was hot and ready to enjoy. We got in and waited for the food to be ready and they didn't take that long like I mentioned above. So we were all happy with our choices of food. Chicken shack is good? Highly recommend. The ambiance it's very casual.

    I waltz my lovely self in this bad boy "The Chicken Shack" ; I've been wanting a salad from this place for a good min so I gave in; So nice n refreshing as I entered the joint: It's hot outside so I can appreciate that! I requested to use the rest room and the lady at the counter was very open to help me and let me in ; the bathroom was clean! yes ! Toilet seat covers ; plenty of soap and paper towels ready . I ordered a Fiesta Grilled Chicken Salad it was nice and fresh topped with all the toppings with 2 small container size salad dressing ; I'm thinking that they make it there ? it was delicious hit the spot . I I was able to include a few workers that day who had great customer service skills .

    I was downtown running some errands and decided to have lunch here for the first time. They have an ordering kiosk which was really nice. I have a hard time seeing far away so it made it easy to scroll and order. There was a worker who stood at the register the whole time I ordered thru the kiosk. I thought that was helpful in case we had any questions. The restaurant itself was big inside and very spacious. I'm always wary of tables being too close together since I'm hefty myself and I have small kids. I don't want to bother anyone around us. The food was okay. Fries are good but the chicken bites I ordered were very very dry. Overcooked. It was a bummer because I ordered some for my kid too and they were also overcooked and dry. My husband had a burger he really liked. My friend got chicken strips which were not try and still very juicy. So I guess hit or miss.

    How are the restrooms closed for customers that paid to dine here? When you have a sign in the window that you are open from 10-9pm with it also stating that the restrooms are for customers. Yet you aren't allowing a 9 year old to use the restroom. On top of that the food was dry as hell and the customer service was trash. Do better especially for your paying patrons.

    Fried pickles
    Deanna P.

    Ordered some food to go and was pretty disappointed with the quality. Asked for only pickles on my chicken sandwich, got home and had only lettuce on a tiny piece of chicken and a squished bun. The blue cheese dip is really runny and the fried pickles have an odd color and smell like they weren't cooked properly. I haven't eaten here in a while but last time everything was fine. Not at all worth the money spent today.

    Oh gawd, yes, please!

    It's been a while since we've eaten here. Picked up take out for lunch today: 6 piece wings, 10 piece chicken tenders and an order of Buffalo chicken fries. When I placed the order over the phone , I was doubtful the worker took it down correctly, just based off our exchange. My son picked up the order and everything was correct, thank you. My husband enjoyed his wings, fry with Szechuan sauce in the side and my daughter liked her fries and sauce. We overall thought the chicken tenders which are also used for the fries, were rubbery. We've always known while the breading in the chicken is really good, the chicken itself is not seasoned. But now, the chicken itself is not cooked well. Won't be back, it's too expensive for what it is.

    The chicken here is very good. I enjoyed the dipping sauce. I got the sweet chilli sauce. The customer service was pretty good. I only came here because of art hop. I would come back to get the chicken but not the fries. The ambiance is weirdly decorated with quotes.

    Staff closed all the bathrooms, not just one. Not for cleaning. Just closed. Don't eat at places that don't take care of their customers.

    Chicken came out barely warm. Flavor was lacking. No seasoning. Fries were ok. Only reason I ate it is because I was very hungry.

    Ask the Community - The Chicken Shack

    Do they take Apple Pay?

    Yes

    Where is the best place to park?

    There were lots of street parking right around the restaurant when we went. Be aware you will need to feed the meter before 6:00

    Are the wings breaded?

    Yes. They have a light breading but the taste is just right!

    Do they toss the wings in sauce if you asked them to?

    Yes they have both wet and dry seasoning.

    Hours of operations?

    I believe their hours are 10:00am - 9:00pm, Mon-Sun (they specifically said Monday through Sunday which I thought was funny). We've passed by close to 9 and they still had big crowds so I bet they've stayed open passed that.

    Mid. It's been…read moreyears since my last visit and that last visit, I was very generous with my review. Especially since it was a rare occasion of getting great service. That's kind of why I never really cared to come back. Service was not consistent and the place is unbearably loud (yes, I know it's a sports bar)... very hard to have a decent conversation here without shouting. We sat in the bar area, Saturday, which we only went because someone misinformed him over the phone that they would be showing a boxing fight he was interested in... come to find out, they don't show boxing matches. We had already ordered our food/drinks before we found out so it was too late to go elsewhere. It was packed in there but there were two available tables for us to choose from and they did clean it off for us fairly quickly so we did appreciate that. Our guy got our drink orders right away, received it not too long after. Took a while before he got our food orders and even longer for the food to come out. Once the food did come out, he asked if we needed anything else, my man asked for another beer... apparently he didn't remember asking because he came back probably 15-20mins later asking if we needed anything else. My bf has more patience than me because he just told him another beer again only to wait probably another 10-15 minutes or so before finally getting it. Our wings were good... never had a problem with their wings. We got the Jammin' Jalapeños. The nachos... meh. Looks nice-ish upon receiving but there's really nothing to these Nachos and that was disappointing. A bunch of chips with only toppings/cheese/cream on the top layer. I should've taken a picture of what we didn't finish-- which was a lot. Either their quality went down or my taste just got more advanced. Oh, and my margarita was by far one of my least favorites I've had in a very long while... watered down, not much flavor (for a Strawberry marg), and just didn't taste like a margarita. I've had my fair share of margs, I'm very qualified to judge. Anyway, if it weren't for their wings-- I'd probably never think to come back... I'd be good with settling for getting them to go. If anything, I'd only go for a social gathering but even then-- there are better options. K, bye.

    Walked in and took a long time to get helped. I was just there to pick up and order. Tried the…read moresweet bbq wings and they were kinda gross. I would like to try other things but I also don't want to waste the money if they aren't. It was also overly loud inside.

First of all just know that a calm sit down atmosphere isn't this place, it is absolutely a take out, take home restaurant. That being said the gal who took my order was very helpful and suggested the best pizza's for what I described I wanted. The service was spot on and yes, she was correct. Now for the pizzas!! I got an all meat Chicago, Detroit combo and a Hawaiian. The Chicago stole the show with plenty of meat, a heavy cheese and the topping of sauce was perfect. The sauce wasn't too sweet and seemed like fresh tomatoes, not the fake sugary sauce that you might buy in bulk. I love a good sauce but I am not a tomato lover so this was surprising. The other pizzas were just as good but we need to talk about the dough. The dough was almost perfect with a crisp bite, but not dry or rubbery. Again, not too sweet either but seemed to carry the weight of the toppings well and didn't cave in. Overall I would put Hot Rod Willy's Pizza at about a solid 8 for the entire experience. The cost was reasonable and I would definitely travel from Merced to Fresno again to snag a few pizzas. I would encourage the owner to take a look at Merced if he chooses to expand!
